The Bachelor Canada, The popular reality series The Bachelor is getting a homegrown version on Citytv this fall. U.S. host Chris Harrison made the announcement in Toronto Monday morning on Breakfast Television. The ABC show, now in its 16th season, features one man attempting to choose a future wife from 25 contenders. Those invited to stay in the competition week to week are asked by the Bachelor to accept red roses, until the pool is narrowed down to two finalists.

Rogers Media says preproduction has already begun on the nine-episode The Bachelor Canada with principal photography to start this spring. It’s being produced by Vancouver-based Force Four Entertainment.

“The Bachelor has long been a fan favourite on Citytv and we look forward to putting a Canadian spin on this thriving franchise,” said Claire Freeland, director of original programming for Rogers Canada, in a news release.

“Canada is brimming with eligible bachelors and bachelorettes, and we’re excited to offer them the opportunity to embark on their own quest for love through this entertaining series.”
